DR604 states:
"The XP specification must consider the scenario where an XP message may be
routed over possibly many different transport or application protocols as it
moves between intermediaries on the message path. This requirement implies
it must be possible apply many transport or application protocol bindings to
the XP message without information loss from the message."

The semantics of an interaction are also bound up in the events that arise
during the course of an interaction, not just the content of the messages
exchanged. Delivery sequence may have semantics, single delivery may be
important, silent loss may be an issue, loss of a 'fault' response may be an
issue. I'd like to fully understand what is scoped as "information loss".
